GOALS

GRANTS OR SCHOLARSHIP TO PAY FOR MY EDUCATION

I AM SEEKING A GRANT OR SCHOLARSHIP TO PAY FOR THE EDUCATIONAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH MY RETURNING TO COLLEGE TO BECOME A TEACHER. I HAVE WORKED FOR THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTION FOR 7 YEARS AS A CORRECTIONAL OFFICER, AND HAVE ALWAYS HAD A DESIRE IN MY HEART TO GO TO COLLEGE IN ORDER TO BECOME A TEACHER.

I TRULY FEEL THAT I CAN MAKE A POSITIVE CHANGE IN THE LIVES OF THE CHILDREN THAT I TEACH. I HAVE WITNESSED FIRST HAND, WORKING WITH THE DEPT OF CORRECTION WHAT HAPPENS TO CHILDREN WHO DONT GET MOTIVATED AND ENCOURAGED IN THEIR CHILDHOOD; I HAVE LEARNED THAT THOSE KIDS BECOME ADULTS WHO END UP MAKING DECISIONS THAT USUALLY RESULT IN DEATH OR INCARCERATION. I FEEL THAT WITH THIS KNOWLEGE INSTILLED IN ME I CAN BE THAT POSITIVE ROLE MODEL THAT SO MANY CHILDREN NEED AND DESIRE, AND IF I CAN PREVENT ONE PERSON FROM MAKING A WRONG DECISION THAT WILL DESTROY THEIR LIFE THEN I HAVE FOUND SUCCESS.

I DONT HAVE MANY NEEDS REGARDING EDUCATIONAL WISE, I COULD USE THE EXTRA MONEY TO PAY FOR MY SCHOOLING, AND I COULD ALSO AFFORD TO PAY MY BILLS SO THAT I CAN WORK LESS AND PAY MORE ATTENTION TO MY EDUATION.

Hi, my name is Vinee Thomas and I need help to pay for text books for college as well as getting an apartment and paying for the first three months rent. I am currently unemployed and diligently seeking employment. I am 19 and I have no where to stay because of mt attitude. I finally have my mind made up but no one believes me because I have cried wolf so many times. Please help me in any way possible!
YOUNG HARDWORKING GIRL NEEDS A HAND

I am in a bind :( It seems like no matter what I do I can't get myself out of this financial rut. I am a 21 year old woman who has made some financial mistakes and am now in the process of cleaning them up. It's getting hard to pay off debts AND keep up with my current bills. I've always worked hard, made goals, and I even accomplished a few on my own. I found this site just googling different keywords and I thought maybe there will be someone out there who is fortunate enough to help someone less fortunate. I am in no way looking for an outright hand out. I just simply need some assistance and maybe someone could use mine. I am open minded and creative enough to figure out a way I may be of some assistance to someone who is generous. I am in the cosmetic field so I can offer anything from makeup to a massage. I can also help someone organize their office, home, etc. I can keep someone company or maybe be the company for a loved one. So, if there is someone out there who is willing to hear me out and lend a hand to help me through this hard time please respond to this posting with what you have in mind. I am honest, upfront, and very respectable.  I am well mannered and well groomed. I am not someone who takes things for granted or someone who finds pleasure in using people. I've been appreciative for everything I have recieved in life and am thankful for each day and try to stay positive despite the obstacles placed before me. With or without some assistance I am sure that my goals will be met. I would just like someone there to lighten the load and possibly allow me to acomplish these goals sooner with less stress. Thanks to whoever is taking the time to read this and I hope this sparked someones interest. :) If not, still have a nice day!

Looking to go to college, need help!

I'm a 21 year old young woman who really wants to get into college. My goal is to be involved with the arts. Art school has always been where I wanted to be, but, it's sadly very expensive. The hours that I work aren't enough, though I try to get as many as I can. Scholarships and grants can only do so much, and I fear that loans will only send me futher into debt. Anything that would be helpful, I'd be grateful for. Thank you for your time. If there's any advice or help you have, please contact me at missfuller9@yahoo.com
